Strangers in a Strange Land - Pt. 4 - Strange Behavior
Living as strangers in a strange land, Christians are called to be different, to live humbly. But humility is not a popular nor celebrated trait in the modern world. It's not praised on talk shows nor celebrated in graduation speeches, its not touted as a core value for business. If you go to the self-help section of Dymocks or Page One you won't find many books on humility. The basic reason for this is because humility can only exist in God’s presence. You could say that humility follows God like a shadow. We can expect to find humility celebrated in our modern world as often as we find God celebrated – which means almost never.
